Hard Place – “Get Your Hopes Up” – [World Famous]

Get your hopes up, it’s gonna be great, it gonna be awesome! At least that’s how the album opens…
The songs here are very self-aware of their silliness, it’s overtly sexual, kind of dark, very glamorous, but packs a weird punch.

Crunchy guitars, synthed out keys, thumping bass, simple drum beats. One might call it sugar-coated rock/punk, or kitschy electronic glam-pop; I prefer the faster paced songs, way better…
